Our CarPlay MMI Prime/PRO retrofit for BMWs has revolutionized how people use their iDrive system. And the best bit is that it's available for a wide range of BMW models, including the BMW X5 F15 SUV. We borrowed a vehicle from BimmerTech's very own CJ to show you how you can get CarPlay in your BMW.
As well as a BMW iPhone integration solution, it also comes with built-in Android Auto for even greater flexibility. If you're looking for a way to get your favorite apps into your vehicle, check out how easy it is to DIY install our BMW CarPlay upgrade. The installation is completely plug & play and 100% reversible, so it's also ideal for leased vehicles.
To find out more about BMW Apple CarPlay and how to retrofit it in your F15, read out blog post: www.bimmer-tech.net/blog/item...

Awesome video. I do have a couple of questions, i have both android and iPhone, which is a better deal when purchasing the MMI. The iPhone version or android version? Also, can I have both devices paired at the same time (android via wifi and iPhone via USB)? Screen mirrowing, does this work when the vehicle is in motion? Would this work with KZfaq videos for kids? Can this be paired to headrest screen for back seat passengers? Satellite radio, I have existing subscription, does this continue to work as normal? Tx for addressing these questions.

1) CarPlay MMI Prime and Android Auto MMI Prime is the same retrofit, 2-in-1. 2) Yes, you can have 2 devices paired at the same time. 3) Yes, screen mirroring works while driving. KZfaq is not guaranteed. Last time we checked it worked but it might not work in the future. BMW block streaming services like that. 4) No, it can't be paired to headrest screen. 5) Yes, your satellite radio subscription will work as usual.

*BOOM* just done this, followed (almost) to the letter. There 4 screws in THE Head Unit, and the OEM video cable was wrapped in tape, which needed careful unwinding. Its not that easy to shove the unit down behind the head unit - but when I was done - about 2 hours later - all working and a great upgrade to my 2016 X5 M50 !! THANK YOU.

@JSarmiento. 2 жыл бұрын

If you have an F25 X3 with NBT, make sure you buy a 6 Pin Car LVDS Video Line Extension because the OEM cable from the NBT head unit to the monitor does not extend at all. Your only option at this point is to mount the MMI box behind the monitor which is something you do not want to do. There will be extra heat generated by the monitor and the MMI box. Buy the extension cable and install the MMI above the glove compartment where it has good space to mount it cleanly and neatly.

Hi! The system is designed to integrate with your factory park assist cameras. For example, when you shift into reverse, CarPlay will automatically switch back to your default iDrive view, so you'll see the view from the cameras exactly as you do now. It also won't void your warranty when properly installed, and installation is 100% reversible, too. Thanks!

Hi! After turning on the car, how long does it take to recognize the phone wirelessly and show the carplay interface automatically on the display?

Hello, it depends on the factors such as: MMI software version, phone model, if the car was fully locked, or it was in standby mode, if the phone will be trying to connect to another device at the same time, etc. It normally takes about 7-10 seconds to be able to move to CarPlay, after full lock of the car.

Another concern is incoming calls appearing. When I’m driving using the navigator and got the call I only can see the call screen then and can’t return to the navigator until I ended that call.

@bimmer-tech 4 жыл бұрын

Audio quality is as you'd expect through the AUX connection, no different than any other unit that connects in the same way. That's more than good enough for a lot of people, but it might depend on your usage (whether you want navigation directions, podcasts, music etc.) and how discerning your ear is. You could always try connecting whatever you have to the AUX port and seeing how you like the sound. If the quality of BMW's AUX input isn't good enough for you, then your only real option is switching out your iDrive unit for an NBT Evo ID6, because anything else is probably going to need you to run the audio into your iDrive through the AUX port. If you've got any questions about this or other solutions, get in touch with our team at info@bimmer-tech.net and let them know your VIN, so we'll be able to check exactly what we can do in your vehicle.
